85 gs what is it worth?

it is a great car, i just want to know about what it is worth. it has 123,000 with new apex seals about 2 years ago. the tranny is prefect! it rides great, it has eibach springs, and tokico gas shocks. prime rims that were about a 1000, a little beat up now. the paint has a few chips here and there, other than that the car is perfect as far as i know. just go to http://www.geocities.com/rx7rotarygs...?1028877670930 i just threw it together in like 2 hours so its kinda crude. just let me know what ya think, and about how much its worth. thanks.

nice, but just so you know, the "rotary engine" decal didn't come stock on anything over an '80 RX-7

I have no clue on $$$ value though, sorry

Why are you selling her? What did she do wrong?

oh, im not selling it, i just bought it and love it to death. i just want to know what it is actually worth, i payed 3100 for it, and i kinda want to know if i got ripped off of a decent deal. the car has been great to me and so far i feel that i ripped the guy i bought it from off. oh yeah, i dont think the car makes mistakes, its all the driver, like when i did that 180 into someones lawn. that was a mistake, at least nothign happened, thank god!!!!

Nice Car. 3100 is a little bit much, but it does appear to be in great condition.


She looks like my girl.

how old is the motor ? who did it? how good a shape is the exhaust? is it ported? if so i would say 35-40 is about right but it depends on a alot of things.

the motor is an 85, its been owned by mechanics its whole life, and it was the second owner of the car who put the new apex seals in, hes worked on race cars his whole life and he knows what hes doing, even with rotaries. its not ported, and it has new exhaust, i dont know what kind though, i dont think its RB. oh yeah, the car has never seen salt either, its always been stored every winter of its life, so there no rust under or on the car what so ever!
